Runaway by Wendelin Van Draanen Book Summary

This diary of a runaway girl and her search for a home celebrates hope, resilience, and happy endings.
 
Holly's run away before, but this time she actually gets away—and what felt like an escape at first soon becomes a daily struggle for survival. She is smart and resourceful, and she manages to make it across the country on her own. But how long can this go on? It's getting harder to avoid the truth—Holly is now homeless.
 
Runaway is a remarkably uplifting portrait of a girl still young and stubborn and naive enough to believe there's a better place for her in the world.

Omg!!!. Just finished it I loved it so much! Great ending wish there was a sequel!!!!!

Best book ever. I have to say I'm not a big reader but when I picked up this book I couldn't put it down, I LOVE it. It's absolutely amazing!

BEST BOOK EVER!!!!. It's a great,and adventurous book.....the main character (Holly) is sneaky, smart, slick and a sassy person and she hates her life but does anything to survive homeless. LOVE THE BOOK!!!

Runaway child #1. I loved this book soooooo much. I'm going to read it over and over again!!!

awesome!!!. this is such a great story holly is so brave!

Adore it!!!. this is the second time i read this book and i absolutely adore it. I couldnt put it down, even the second time. However the writing does seem to be a little mature for a 12 year old but thats ok. I recommend this book to everyone, it is a heartbreaking story that has made me realize to appreciate what you have. Thank you wendelin for helping ME turn the page.

I love this book. I read this book like 3 times and I love it <3

The runaway. I love this book. It was sad. The little girl was brave.

Amazing. This book is amazing. One of the best books I have read in the past year.

Loveeee. I’ve loved this book since I read it in middle school. I had to have it in my hands as my own!

Runaway. It was an amazing book. I loved it.

Runaway Is My Favorite. This is my favorite book! Thank you! Maybe you should make a part two...

Exceptional Book. Runaway is one of the best books I have ever read

Grew up with it!. This was my favorite book when I was a little girl. It got me through a hard time in my life while I was dealing with bullying and failing grades. Holly taught me to stay tough even in the face of adversity and that things will always get worse before they get better. This book is one of many that began my early love of reading and inspired me to overcome my dyslexia. I hope to be reading it in my book club soon.

Oh, wow.. What an amazing book. I felt like I was living with Holly, following her around, shivering in the rain. Even though I've never been in a situation like Holly's, (thank God) I feel the same way about a lot of things. Here's my very favorite part: “It’s weird to read your own writing, you know that? It’s embarrassing.” I am an avid writer, (as you might can tell) and I frequently read my writing. Whether it was written last year or last night, I always feel acutely embarrassed by my writings. So thanks, Wendelin, for creating a relatable character. I nearly cried over some of the parts. Plus, I'm also a poet, and Holly's work is inspirational. P. S. If you want to read on and know how Holly turns out, try the Sammy Keyes series. Sammy is the one who rescued Holly, and it's a long, intriguing mystery series. Plus, it's got the same element of making you wake up and realize how fortunate you are. P. P. S. Read my review on Sammy Keyes and the Showdown in Sin City. It'll give you a better look on what I think about Sammy. P. P. P. S. I'm only rating this four stars, because it was chilling and showed me worlds I only vaguely realized existed— such as that of street kids and cruel foster homes. But the writing is totally 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!!! P. P. P. P. S. Sorry that this is such a long review, but I actually appreciate the long ones most. So thanks, all you people who take time to actually write a "review"! P. P. P. P. P. S. My sincerest apologies. I never set out to make an entire list of "p. s."s.

Runaway!!!!. Great book couldnt put it down
